Google reader on a Netbook

I got a Lenovo S10 some months ago, and like all netbooks it has a 1024x~600 resolution which is fine for most web browgins but it happens to be too short for some applications, one of them being Google Reader.
After installing the right WM, installing the right firefox extensions and settings the right font size. [...]
